Is This Team Ready For The Playoffs?

[Kman34]

As fans we can see the weaknesses if this team....O-line....Play calling....No pass rush without Houston and Tomba... but do the coaches see it???

The Patriots just lost to the Jets.
The Bengals are stuck with a backup QB.
The Broncos have lost to the Raiders and Steelers in back-to-back weeks.
The Texans will likely make it in at 8-8 or 9-7.
The Jets are on a decent win streak, but aren't even guaranteed to make it in.


We don't look great, but neither does anyone else. Sometimes playoff teams just have to win ugly.

After today you have over two weeks to relax...

A lot of people thought the Royals weren't ready for the postseason. That seemed to work out pretty well.

Return game is shit and needs to step up as well.

The defense is playoff ready assuming Hali, Houston and Abdullah are all back in 2 weeks.

Wow... actually must say ALL OF THIS.

The AFC is a shitshow. The Chiefs have as good a chance to win it as anyone, and if you believe that cities tend to get hot when it comes to sports luck, then it stands to reason that the Chiefs could make a run.

Yeah this is a good (and true) point.

[Kman34]

Drop the damm bubble screen from the playbook..... We aren't fooling teams with that anymore...

[jLoy88]

Definitely ready. Everyone should be healthy and ready to lay some pent up anger out on whoever we get. This team has only had three 9 game win streaks in its' entire history. Two of them have been with Alex Smith and Andy Reid.

[Marcellus]

We have time to get our defense healthy, our offense is reasonable when needed though very frustrating at times.

They have won 9 in a row and the 1st round match up looks to be weak regardless of who it is.

Yes they are ready. What happens? Who knows.

[NJChiefsFan]

Winning 9 or 10 straight is hard. Staying that focused game in and game out has to be difficult. I would like to think that they can reset mentally and get healthy. Haven't been humming the past 3 or 4 games. Sometimes the opponent actually makes it harder to be crisp. Plays like that pick by Smith never should have been a pass play anyway.

[OnTheWarpath15]

58 yards of offense in a half isn't going to cut it against playoff teams, regardless of how shitty you all think they might be.

[Kman34]

I think I will decide if we are ready till after the Raider game.....
